      Fuck I wish China would be more assertive in taking a stand. It's really fucking gross to see an abstention here considering what ended up happening to Libya.

        I'd love to see China taking a bigger stand as well, but to be fair the West would see this as provocation or as a self-fulfilling prophecy of "Da Evile Rebellious Sneaky Chian-Kneeze!" and China is in the last few stages of developing itself enough materially to openly challenge the west relatively soon, and I figure China doesn't want to rock the boat until its 100 percent ready.

    Liberals, if you don't like what's going on in Niger, then just vote. Violence is always unacceptable, right?

    Wait, what's that you're saying? Your vote has no ability to affect what happens there?

    Wonder where I've heard that one before. smuglord

    Just in case anyone missed it, this is a reference to South Korea's statements about Russia and DPRK making arms deals.
